Implication of El Niño and La Niña on Zambia’s 2024 food security │ WestMac Media

 By Winston Muleba II

El Niño, according to Care International, is a meteorological trend that causes abnormally warm water to spread over the Pacific Ocean's surface. Worldwide weather patterns are influenced and altered by the interaction of winds and ocean currents. Reduced rainfall and dryness are the main results. El Niño and La Niña often follow each other, bringing severe weather to the same areas that El Niño has already severely damaged. Usually, it is connected to rainfall that is above normal. It may help with water shortages, but in some places it can also lead to floods. The rainy season is when floods happen, especially in December and January when heavy precipitation events are most frequent. Riverine floods and flash floods are both dangerous. In 2009–2010, 238,258 people were reported to have been impacted by flash floods and water logging brought on by periods of high precipitation.
